While you were tailgating and watching the Minnesota Vikings play the Seattle Seahawks, the Minnesota Twins lost to the Toronto Blue Jays by a score of 5-2. It was the Twins' second consecutive loss after they started off the four game set with a pair of wins on Thursday and Friday night.

The Twins never held a lead in the ballgame, as Griffin Jax gave up an early three-run home run to catcher Danny Jansen in the top of the second inning.

In the bottom half of the inning, Jake Cave was able to help Minnesota cut into the lead when he drove in Mitch Garver with an RBI single. However, Toronto's power was too much, as George Springer homered in the fifth and Teoscar Hernandez doubled in Bo Bichette for the fifth and final run of the game in the eighth.
